SPINACH AND RICOTTA BALLS
Steps:
- Cook the frozen spinach, and get rid of *all* water (this is the most important step-- use paper towels to truly get all moisture out of the spinach, I even use a rolling pin.) Chop spinach. In a mixing bowl, add spinach, cheeses, nutmeg, and egg, salt and pepper. Mix well. Add just enough flour to make mixture start to ball up. (usually between 1/3 and 1/2 cup if you've dried the spinach enough.) Create tbsp. sized balls of the mixture (like drop cookie size.) Bring water to a gentle boil (med-med high heat depending on stove.) Drop in all spinach balls. Done in 2-4 minutes or when they rise to the top. Remove from water as ready with wire tool or slotted spoon. Great with pasta sauce, or simply good olive oil and a sprinkling of parmesan.
